Metal Lath for FL Stucco Projects
Stucco is a popular exterior treatment for Florida construction. Metal lath provides a reinforcing base for stucco application and is a critical component for these jobs. Whether you need diamond/flat mesh, self-furring, welded wire, or others, R.S. Elliott can help you select the right lath products and accessories for your unique needs.
Metal Lath vs. Mesh
Metal lath and metal mesh work together, but are not interchangeable.Understanding the differences can be crucially important to ensuring you get precisely the building products you need.
Lath is formed by pressing sheets of metal into a uniform grid of small openings, to which plaster and stucco firmly stick. Commonly used in projects involving walls, ceilings, and other surfaces, there are several types of metal lath.
- Expanded metal lath
- Ribbed metal lath
- Self-furring lath
Metal mesh features more variation—in construction and purpose—than metal lath.
- Mesh can be woven, welded, or perforated
- Mesh comes in a range of thicknesses, patterns, and hole sizes
- Mesh is strong and flexible, suitable for applications as diverse as security fencing or filtration
